Freesat is a little box that replaces your sky box, just unplug sky, plug in the Freesat box, switch on and it sets itself up, just watch it till its finished and the program you want is on channel five on friday.

Nowt techy, if you can plug in sky you can do freesat.

Freeview will only work from a terestrial aerial if you can already recieve channel five, I managed to realign my daughters aerial from woodnook, to the one near Pendle, which is the nearest channel 5 link, which is a relay from Winter Hill. She gets far more channels than I do through Freesat.
I tried my roof top on the same direction, but the trees on the coppice block the signal, and my daughter is only 500 yrds away and she can get it.
